The Hillsborough Exchange Club, chartered in June1947, has been serving our community for over 70 years.   The club created Hillsborough’s first park in the mid 1950’s and have improved it over the years.  In 1970, the club members created a ball field on the park land and HYAA has used and improved that facility for decades.  In 1981, the club house was constructed by members.  All of the club’s projects center around helping children.  We support the Exchange Club’s Family Center of the Central Piedmont in Graham which provides parenting classes to Orange County families to improve parenting and eliminate child abuse.  We assist the Orange County Sheriff’s office’s Victims Crisis Service Officer with emergency baby and child supplies. We help fund the Central Piedmont Junior Livestock Show and FFA Clubs.  We give scholarships to 4 high school students who have succeeded academically despite hardships. We honor fire, EMS and law enforcement service each year.   We celebrate exemplary community service of local citizens by giving the Golden Deeds Award.
